Spend your money and invest in the best tools!

I think you should have just put the cutting heads in the base but I lost a piece because it popped out at the top after I put it back in. I thought it was there but no now I have no idea where it is which is annoying. Super dissatisfied!

Pros
  • Contains 5 different cutting blades: V-shaped, small U-shaped, medium (3 mm) U-shaped, large U-shaped (4.5 mm) notches and cutting knives.
Cons
  • Not sure

children's toys!

I bought this tool to remove paint from the decorative grooves on the door. The blades did not stay in the holder. No matter how I tried to get a grip on them, they fell out. Disappointing because the two blades were the right size for what I needed. Rather spend a little more money and get the best.

Pros
  • Can be used on very soft woods, linocut, rubber and vinyl. Very versatile, cutting all materials
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

The tips don't snap into the grip and most of them don't cut well.

Parts/tips keep falling out of main handle when in use, won't snap. Came with a stick. I thought I tried this to fix the nozzles, it only worked with one nozzle, the others didn't fit. Cuts linoleum tile/soft cut blocks but not very well, cut lines are blurry, broken on most parts/tips. One tip cuts well, the others don't. Maybe because they don't hold a secure grip. There are no instructions. The grip is good and comfortable. I think you get what you paid for.

Pros
  • Plastic handle in wood look with metal edging. Each blade is made of carbon steel, which can also be sharpened.
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide
